valve<br />

that resemble cholera toxin in function include diphtheria<br />

toxin, exotoxin A, and pertussis toxin.<br />

cholera vaccine<br />

An immunizing preparation comprised of Vibrio cholerae<br />

smooth strains Inaba and Ogawa in addition to El Tor vibrio<br />

that have been killed by heat or formalin treatment. The<br />

vaccine is designed to induce protective active immunity<br />

against cholera in regions where it is endemic as well as in<br />

travelers to those locations. The immunity induced is effective<br />

for only about 12 weeks.<br />

cholinergic urticaria<br />

Skin edema induced by an aberrant response to acetylcholine<br />

that occurs following diminished cholinesterase<br />

activity.<br />

CHOP therapy<br />

A combination of chemotherapeutic antineoplastic substances<br />

including cyclophosphamide, [H]-doxorubicin,<br />

[O]-vincristine, and prednisolone.<br />

chorea<br />

Involuntary muscle twitching that occurs in cases of acute<br />

rheumatic fever and is commonly known as St. Vitus’ dance.<br />

Drop<br />

counter<br />

Fraction collector<br />

Column chromatography. Arrows indicate direction of flow. Chromatography refers to a group of methods employed for the separation of proteins.<br />

High analyte<br />

choriocarcinoma<br />

An unusual malignant neoplasm of the placenta trophoblast<br />

cells in which the fetal neoplastic cells are allogeneic in<br />

the host. On rare occasions, these neoplasms are “rejected”<br />

spontaneously by the host. Antimetabolites have been used<br />

in the treatment of choriocarcinoma.<br />

chromium release assay<br />

The release of chromium ( 51 Cr) from labeled target cells<br />

following their interaction with cytotoxic T lymphocytes<br />

or antibody and K cells (ADCC) or natural killer (NK)<br />

cells. The test measures cell death, which is reflected by the<br />

amount of radiolabel released according to the number of<br />

cells killed.<br />

chromogenic substrate<br />

A colorless substance transformed into a colored product by<br />

an enzymatic reaction.<br />

chromogranin monoclonal antibody<br />

An antibody that recognizes chromogranin A (68 kDa)<br />

and other related chromogranin polypeptides from<br />

humans, monkeys, and pigs. It is designed for the specific<br />

and quantitative localization of human chromogranin in<br />
